Thanksgiving fun

Today was Canadian thanksgiving and we celebrated by eating our turkey small chicken in the dark. No, we didn't plan it that way to save energy, we're not that kind of people. Turns out there was a major power outage affecting half of the island that we live on which meant that we had mashed potatoes with no gravy (hadn't quite gotten to the gravy part before the power went out) and no corn. We did have stuffing, the bird, and the potatoes and all tasted delicious. Guess who slept through the entire occasion?? Simon of course. He's slept through 2 fire alarms and a power outage so far in his short life. Just like his daddy.

We drove around town after dinner marveling at people's inability to respect the 4 way stop procedure at each of the non-functioning street lights that we encountered. By the time we got home (a half hour later) the power was back on and the dishes were waiting for me to wash.

Am I a bad mommy for forgetting to take pics of his first thanksgiving? Yup, I think I am.
